HipHop is prophetical especially the Old School. GrandMaster Melle Mel penned a rap in the tune 'Beat Street Breakdown" more prophetical than books of The Bible! Here's a sample:
"A newspaper burns in the sand, and the headlines say.."Man destroys Man"
Extra! Extra! Read all the bad news on the war for peace that everybody would lose
The rise and fall, the last great empire, the sound of the whole world caught on fire
The game that left the whole world in shambles
The cheats, the lies, the alibis
And the foolish attempt to conquer the skies
Lost in space and what is it worth?
The President just forgot about Earth
Spending multi billions and maybe even trillions
The cost of weapons ran into zillions
There's gold in the street, and diamonds under feet
And the children in Africa don't even eat
Flies on their faces they're living like mice
And the houses even make the ghetto look nice
The water tastes funny..It's forever too sunny
And they work all month and don't make no money
A fight for power, a nuclear shower
And people shout out in the darkest hour
Of sights unseen and voices unheard
And finally THE BOMB gets THE LAST WORD
Christians killed Muslims and Germans killed Jews
And everbody's BODIES are used and abused
Minds are poisoned and souls are polluted
Superiority complex is deep rooted
Leeches and lice and people GOT PRICES
EGOMANIACS control the self righteous
NOTHING IS SACRED AND NOTHING IS PURE
So the REVELATION OF DEATH IS OUR CURE
Hitler and Caesar, Custer and Reagan
Napoleon, Castro, Mussolini, and Begin
Ghenghis Khan and the Shah of Iran
MIXED WITH BLOOD OF THE WEAKER MAN
The people's in terror, THE LEADERS MAKE ERROR
And now they can't even look in the mirror
Cause we gotta SUFFER while things get Rougher
And that's the the reason why we got to get tougher
To learn from the past and work for the future
And don't be a SLAVE to no COMPUTER
Cause the children of Man inherits THE LAND
And the future of the world is in your hands
So just throw your hands in the air And wave'em like you just don't care
And if you believe that you're the future
Scream it out and say OH YEAH!!!
Now that's prophecy that's 20 years old and relevant!
Of relevance:
"A FIGHT FOR POWER, A NUCLEAR SHOWER"
"AND PEOPLE SHOUT OUT IN THE DARKEST HOUR"
"OF SIGHTS UNSEEN AND VOICES UNHEARD"
"AND FINALLY THE BOMB GETS THE LAST WORD"
There was a hyper-technical Nuclear War in the days of the ANCIENTS in Egypt and Sumeria the reason so many Ancient cities have been unearthed...Unlike nowadays the ANCIENTS knew how to clean up the atmosphere after such sophisticated weaponry use...We're headed that way Melle Mel just disguised this with Hip-Hop moor on this later! Respects...
